hmm, the html outputs this: [code] <select name='sex'> <option value='Male' selected='selected' >Male</option> <option value='Female' selected='selected' >Female</option> </select> [/code] any help would be wonderful thankz

i have this code for changing ur gender (if ur a male or female). it changes the value in the database but it doesnt display if ur chosen gender. help pleeze [code] <?php $query = $config->query("SELECT * FROM $table_users WHERE username='$_SESSION[username]'"); $row = mysql_fetch_array($query); $sex = array ( 0 => 'Male', 1 => 'Female', ); echo "<select name='sex'>"; if ( (in_array("$row[sex]", $sex)) ) { $selected = "selected='selected'"; } else { $selected = NULL; } $option = " <option value='$sex[0]' $selected >$sex[0]</option>\n <option value='$sex[1]' $selected >$sex[1]</option>\n"; echo $option; echo "</select>"; ?> [/code]

[code] <?php   $query = $config->query("SELECT * FROM table_modules");             echo "<select name='conf_default_mod'>"; while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($query)) { $option = "\n<option value='$row[id]'>$row[name]</option>\n"; $query2 = $config->query("SELECT * FROM table_settings WHERE id='11'"); $row2 = mysql_fetch_array($query2); $def_mod = $row2['value']; if(eregi("$def_mod",$option)) { $option = str_replace($option,"\n<option value='$row[id]' selected='selected'>$row[name]</option>\n",$option); } else { $option = "\n<option value='$row[id]'>$row[name]</option>\n"; } echo $option; }             echo "           </select>"; ?> [/code] incase anyone wanted to know how it was done

ah i got it to work :D

didnt work., i dont have a $row'is_selected' field in my table.

[code] <?php   $query = $config->query("SELECT * FROM table_modules");             echo "<select name='conf_default_mod'>"; while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($query)) { echo "\n<option value='$row[id]'>$row[name]</option>\n"; }             echo "           </select>    ?> [/code] how do i change the code so that it echo's whatever option is selected in the database. like selected="selected" . any one know how?

ahh i c.

Oh, ok.

if a string contains html code, how do you output without it? for example: [code] <?php $string = "<b>hi</b>"; echo $string; ?> [/code] the string wont be bold, it will just be 'hi' without the bolding.

thx. i revised it a bit so it checks if the user inputs just www.google.com or google.com [code] <?php if (!strstr($url,'http://')) { if (strstr($url,'www')) { $url = 'http://'.$url; } else {     $url = 'http://www.'.$url;   } } ?> [/code]

how do i convert google.com or if the user inputs www.google.com to http:// or if they already have http:// it wont add the extra http:// like in vbulletin?? does anyone know how i been trying to figure it out i dont kno how to do it someone pleeze give me example pls help thanks im new at php idk where 2 start.

yeah but im saying like, what usergroups do you use in the table

how do u do ur usergroup permissions for if ur making a forum or cms. like root, admin, member?? or is there something more

Ohh ok, thanks alot. and yes, im new to functions and classes so that helped a bunch

ur using the right php syntax so make sure its the right path and if it is then its something with the server ur on

eh how come this happens... the code doesn't echo what variable 'a' is set to..why?... [code] <?php class variable { function loadvars() { $a = 'lol'; } function newfunction() { $this->loadvars(); echo $a; } } $variable = new variable(); $variable->newfunction(); ?>[/code]

lmfao. it worked fine for me rofl.

lol??

but i used it before and it worked as if i was using !== :/

i didnt ask the difference between !== and !=... i asked the difference between !== and ==!... lol.

i dont get it. :x

pwnd.
